<br>
"Doing Good" showcases the best solutions journalism from around the world. It’s a channel that highlights stories that put the world’s most complicated problems under a microscope with the goal of finding solutions. It focuses on what’s working, and how we can do better.<br>
<br>
Sounds great, right? Here are some of the articles our experts have recommended this week:<br>
<br>
Piqer Helen Morgan <a href="https://piqd.us11.list-manage.com/track/click?u=1c016007e32cb1600e4f02736&id=216c8ce299&e=14b5cc7e12" style="color:#0d8faf!important" target="_blank">focuses on how inexpensive greenhouses are helping farmers in India adapt to climate change</a>: The social entrepreneurs behind the idea were trying to address the issue of growing numbers of farmer suicides, linked to problems with low crop yields due to drought. <br>
<br>
We read so much about the global opioid crisis, but rarely about solutions. Piqer Danielle Batist <a href="https://piqd.us11.list-manage.com/track/click?u=1c016007e32cb1600e4f02736&id=ec9ffab2f4&e=14b5cc7e12" style="color:#0d8faf!important" target="_blank">points to Portugal’s drug decriminalization program</a>, which has successfully reduced opioid use, as well as drug abuse of all kinds. <br>
<br>
Michaela Haas highlighted <a href="https://piqd.us11.list-manage.com/track/click?u=1c016007e32cb1600e4f02736&id=854b2df8c8&e=14b5cc7e12" style="color:#0d8faf!important" target="_blank">an article about carbon farming</a>, and more specifically how plants and agriculture can play a major role in significantly reducing C02 released into the atmosphere. <br>
<br>
Jodie Jackson found an article about a young entrepreneur who’s crowdfunded and <a href="https://piqd.us11.list-manage.com/track/click?u=1c016007e32cb1600e4f02736&id=c9a4f4fedd&e=14b5cc7e12" style="color:#0d8faf!important" target="_blank">built gigantic device to clean up the Great Pacific Garbage Patch</a>(an island of plastic roughly the size of France floating in the Pacific Ocean). The device, called The Ocean Cleanup, will set sail this summer.<br>
<br>
Finally, we have an article from the<a href="https://piqd.us11.list-manage.com/track/click?u=1c016007e32cb1600e4f02736&id=d860eef820&e=14b5cc7e12" style="color:#0d8faf!important" target="_blank"> Good News Network </a>recommended by Geri Weis-Corbley about a formerly homeless San Francisco writer <a href="https://piqd.us11.list-manage.com/track/click?u=1c016007e32cb1600e4f02736&id=0bb244e93a&e=14b5cc7e12" style="color:#0d8faf!important" target="_blank">who is trying to address growing inequality by teaching people from the poorest neighborhoods how to code</a>—some of whom have since landed six-figure jobs.<br>

Leading up to this cataclysmic day, most media pundits (and even the local government) predicted utter chaos. The fact that water was running out in a city known for a history of extreme racial tension only made predictions more dire.</p>
<p style="color:#444444;font-family:Helvetica,Arial,sans-serif;font-size:14px;font-weight:normal;line-height:1.5;margin:0 0 21px;padding:0;text-align:left" align="left">However, when reporter Eve Fairbanks traveled to Cape Town to see how residents were managing the impending apocalypse, what she found was quite the contrary: People were coming together, across economic and even racial lines, to conserve water and try to find some sort of solution: Voluntary water usage plummeted, and it soon became a badge of honor to "show a visitor day-old urine ripening in your toilet."</p>
<p style="color:#444444;font-family:Helvetica,Arial,sans-serif;font-size:14px;font-weight:normal;line-height:1.5;margin:0 0 21px;padding:0;text-align:left" align="left">She describes residents of Cape Town's behavior as a "beautiful social experiment."</p>
<blockquote style="border-left-color:#444444;border-left-style:solid;border-left-width:2px;font-style:italic;margin-bottom:21px;margin-left:20px;padding-left:10px">It could be that human beings are just waiting for something that gives them a challenge, a chance to rise above their politics-exhausted cynicisms and prove they can be good neighbors, stand for more than just money and success, and find ingenious tricks, together, to outwit their new tormentors. It could be that certain kinds of disasters—particularly the natural, which feel more neutral and acceptable than politically driven ones—may wedge open spaces for change in other areas in which we feel stuck.</blockquote>

Our meat consumption isn’t sustainable. But lab made meat has the potential to fundamentally transform the human food chain. This will have a planetary-wide impact, providing an eco-friendly and safe source of animal protein. And innovation is not just happening in universities and corporate research facilities: at-home biohackers are already making it happen.<p style="color:#444444;font-family:Helvetica,Arial,sans-serif;font-size:14px;font-weight:normal;line-height:1.5;margin:0 0 21px;padding:0;text-align:left" align="left"></p>

<p style="color:#444444;font-family:Helvetica,Arial,sans-serif;font-size:14px;font-weight:normal;line-height:1.5;margin:0 0 21px;padding:0;text-align:left" align="left">The author is referring a conversation with Yuki Hanyu on the growing ‘clean meat’ community. Japan-based Hanyu, who holds a PhD in chemistry, is more than a mere enthusiast on the subject. With the Shojinmeat Project, he connects roughly 30 DIY citizen scientists across Japan — often schoolkids — who all grow artificial meat in their own homes. Apart from offering each other advice and exchanging experience, the group frequently post articles as well as pictures of their work, sharing both their insights and their enthusiasm with others.</p>
<p style="color:#444444;font-family:Helvetica,Arial,sans-serif;font-size:14px;font-weight:normal;line-height:1.5;margin:0 0 21px;padding:0;text-align:left" align="left">In the article, Hanyu describes the delicate process of making meat from cells in a fertilized egg — involving dry ice, centrifuge and an incubator in true Do It Yourself style. The Shojinmeat Project isn’t the only thing Hanyu is up to — in 2015 he funded the start-up company Integriculture, with the hopes of creating “a general purpose large-scale cell culture system”.</p>
<p style="color:#444444;font-family:Helvetica,Arial,sans-serif;font-size:14px;font-weight:normal;line-height:1.5;margin:0 0 21px;padding:0;text-align:left" align="left">With Integriculture Hanyu looks beyond meat, departing from similar companies by thinking in more general terms. Among other things, the company plans on using its cell-growing technology to create customized products for cosmetics and supplement companies. Further out, they want to create a clean-meat infrastructure that they could license out to other companies, reaching a broader market. </p>

Will you be among them?”</p>

The lecture was given in 2017 at George Mason University, but it could not be more topical. Kukathas's theme is immigration and freedom. But while we often think of this in terms of a migrant's freedom to move, Kukathas points to the impact immigration control has on the prospective host country.</p>
<p style="color:#444444;font-family:Helvetica,Arial,sans-serif;font-size:14px;font-weight:normal;line-height:1.5;margin:0 0 21px;padding:0;text-align:left" align="left">Borders, Kukathas notes, are a political construct. The extent to which borders are enforced is always a matter of degree. Borders are not only about who can enter the country. They also control what they do when they are in that country, i.e. whether they can work, purchase property, or settle. Immigration control, therefore, does not stop at the border.</p>
<p style="color:#444444;font-family:Helvetica,Arial,sans-serif;font-size:14px;font-weight:normal;line-height:1.5;margin:0 0 21px;padding:0;text-align:left" align="left">For instance, enforcing immigration law requires policing non-immigrants who might wish to hire undocumented immigrants. And this policing requires the recreation of new and powerful bureaucracies. Kukathas's lecture points to the costs of attempting to rigorously enforce immigration law.</p>
<p style="color:#444444;font-family:Helvetica,Arial,sans-serif;font-size:14px;font-weight:normal;line-height:1.5;margin:0 0 21px;padding:0;text-align:left" align="left">To control immigration is to control people — and not just outsiders — but also citizens who might be required to provide identification or made liable for checking the status of those they hire. Thus, living<span> in a society that tightly controls immigration means living in a society that’s very heavily controlled with respect to ourselves.</span>

While in this case the tech and communications giants promise that joining their corporations would make wireless networks faster and more reliable, the merger would also consolidate America’s wireless companies to just three, which is almost certain to bump prices for access to information and communication. Even Donald Trump suggested this wasn’t a good idea. </p>

That is not a good excuse, though, as powerful organizations such as the World Press Photo (WPP) should be doing more to identify photographers in African countries given they do exist and stand most to benefit from networking and training opportunities. </p>

Born in Kenya and now living in Senegal, I rarely see images in global media that represent the African experience in its full diversity. It's easy to find pictures of slums, garbage heaps, conflict, but rarely of positive images in western media. I turn to Instagram for that. </span>
